A ride for a man and his dog came to an abrupt end Sunday.
The 36-year-old was arrested and charged with impaired driving on Highway 8, after blowing nearly three times the legal limit.
Police were notified after receiving reports of a red car swerving across the road. Officers attempted to initiate a traffic stop, but the driver did not react to the emergency lights or siren.
RCMP did not confirm where the driver was pulled over, or where the driver was from.
